h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*Kiddo runs out of the forest with his sharpened stick and coconut*

Kiddo: You got a seagull!? Yippee! Put your brah back on!

*runs up beach to CD*
Hey, CD! I have a hot pit dug in the sand with mollusks and fish baking...you can throw the bird in there and the feathers will burn off and I'll help you clean it afterwards. In the meantime eat all the hot seafood you want.

Kiddo! Are you hungry? You can have some seafood too...

Kiddo:So far the only thing I've cought was a snake, and it was tangled in the cargo netting. Can I still have some bird, please?

The offer for fish and mollusk stll stands, Kiddo...

Kiddo: You bet! Lead the way!

*puts brah back on (whatever THAT is) and puts bra back on, too*

No, you can't just toss the feathers and all in there, but for the life of me I can't remember why...

*What the hell, tosses bird onto fire, to be greeted by a huge plume of foul black smoke*

*COUGH COUGH!*

Kiddo: Well that should taste interesting.
And I don't think you should have points counted against you for bad spelling.

*pulls smoking, now featherless bird from coals and takes carcass out of eyesight to clean so others can eat without watching the cleaning of the bird. Returns with cleaned and gutted bird and places on coals*

*Petunia skips along and happens back onto base camp. Sees the food cooking with everyone gathered about*

Petunia: Wow, my request to God worked. Or perhaps it's just coincidental.

Kiddo: hey Petunia. Sorry I just left you back there. Are you okay?

Hi, Petunia...eat! There's large seashells for plates-sorry, but you'll have to use your fingers...

Petunia: Hi everyone! Thanks. The food smells great.

*hobbles over the eating area*
Hi there, can I have some too, please?
And maybe the innards of the bird might be good for fishing bait or wire, if we could cut it up very thinly.

Kiddo: That was pretty good. Well, I don't know what time it is where you are standing but it's getting late here. I think I'll go on a little walk before going to sleep. Maybe I won't get killed. See you latter.
*Heads for the waterfall*

*Leaves note*

*If anyones seen a nice ox, please direct to Yapong base camp.
Large slab of sharkmeat for the first person to spot her*

*Kiddo returns to the camp site to find the note*

Hmm. That would be nice if I could find her. I wonder where she whent.
~Yawn~ Time to hit the hay. Good-night everyone.

* The night falls the tribes basecamp much merriment is in evidence... *

* One young lady is displaying her bra proudly recounting a tale of such skill & daring, that even big game hunters would be proud of the embellished yarn. Honestly, who ever heard of gulls with talons as sharp as knives... *

* The mighty Ox makes a play for becoming the defacto tribe leader by bringing in the greatest haul Atlantis ever bore... *

* The others content themselves with the gumbo style meal thanking their lucky stars they're on this tribe... *

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm...

*bolts down food with the aid of his archaic fork, the only weapon he has brought with him. [Well, almost the only weapon ... heh heh heh.]*

*finds message from eatsmice and smiles...regrets having missed warrior brother. Stirs up the coals in last night's fire and finds more wood to keep it going. Realizes challenging gods are strangely quiet at the moment and, having secured the fire, goes in search of others*
